6 dictd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the dictd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the dictd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The dictd processes execute with the dictd_t SELinux type. You can
13 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
14 with the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep dictd_t
19
20
21
23 The dictd_t SELinux type can be entered via the dictd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the dictd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/dictd
28
30 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31 system
32
33 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
36 dictd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their dictd pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for dictd:
40
41 dictd_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a dictd_t can be used to make the process
44 type dictd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
45 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46 ated.
47
48
50 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. dictd
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run dictd with the tightest access possible.
53
54
55
56 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
57 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
58
59 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
60
61
62
64 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
65
66 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
67 command:
68
69 semanage port -l
70
71
72 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
73 SELinux dictd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
74 dictd processes in as secure a method as possible.
75
76 The following port types are defined for dictd:
77
78
79 dict_port_t
80
81
82
83 Default Defined Ports:
84 tcp 2628
85
87 The SELinux process type dictd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
88 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
89 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

147 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
148 type.
149
150 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
151
152 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
153 SELinux dictd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
154 dictd processes in as secure a method as possible.
155
156 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
157
158 SELinux defines the file context types for the dictd, if you wanted to
159 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
160 the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use re‐
161 storecon to put the labels on disk.
162
163 semanage fcontext -a -t dictd_var_run_t '/srv/mydictd_content(/.*)?'
164 restorecon -R -v /srv/mydictd_content
165
166 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
167 match multiple files.
168
169 The following file types are defined for dictd:
170
171
172
173 dictd_etc_t
174
175 - Set files with the dictd_etc_t type, if you want to store dictd files
176 in the /etc directories.
177
178
179
180 dictd_exec_t
181
182 - Set files with the dictd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
183 executable to the dictd_t domain.
184
185
186
187 dictd_initrc_exec_t
188
189 - Set files with the dictd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
190 tion an executable to the dictd_initrc_t domain.
191
192
193
194 dictd_var_lib_t
195
196 - Set files with the dictd_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
197 dictd files under the /var/lib directory.
198
199
200
201 dictd_var_run_t
202
203 - Set files with the dictd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
204 dictd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
205
206
207
208 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
209 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
210 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
211 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
212
213
215 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
216 mappings.
217
218 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
219 process type is permissive.
220
221 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
222 icy modules.
223
224 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
225
226 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
227
228
229 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
230 icy settings.
